LOL. Just seen this on the Xbox site, Nintys this might be offensive towards you mario fans, but you gotta see the funny side of it!

I must stress, NOM have really changed, and in recent issues, they've actually complimented the PS2 and X-Box. But back in the N64 days, I'll agree, it was rather childish.
I do remember a certain someone using the same phrases though.. ;D

Savatt, I could easily come up with better material than that. And if it's that easy for me, because all I have to beat is what may even be classed as 'toilet humour', I just don't find it funny.

Oh PLEASE Savatt! Give us some credit! I mean, come on! 'LameCube'? 'Pansies'? A ten year old could have put that together! If Nintendo were to do their equivalent of that, I know I'd be sincerely embarrassed! I can't believe some people are saying this proves Microsoft have a sense of humour!
All this shows is a pathetic attempt to be funny, and one that fails miserably. It proves Microsoft should keep to the technical side of things, and not try to display any form of imagination! It also displays a little bit of jealously. After such great sales figures, I'm sure Nintendo and fans will just laugh it off anyway.

I'm sure he did :D
I don't find the joke offensive in any way, I would have laughed if it was actually humourous but lamecube and 'Nintendo is for pansies' is not witty in any way.
I find it uber pathetic though that Microsoft would have something like this on their official website, no other company would stoop to such childish levels.
If it was on an unofficial then okay whatever, but the official website? oh dear

Well after looking back over this post I can't believe how Ninties are taking this advert, everyone knew it was a joke... The Gamecube that is ;)
Anyway, you look at the sales figures Wookie because I will be looking at the best console ;) Oh and I have gotten myself a 5.1 system to ensure the best of all formats :)
*Waits for Wookie reply on how 5.1 doesn't make a difference*
*Waits for Ninty reply on how Pro Logic is just as good*
*Waits for any reply to make sure people don't think I am insane*
*Waits for Xbox to load to play games in 5.1*
*Ends 5.1 jokes and leaves the room*
You see, a joke?! Come one we take stick all the time can't you take a teeny weeny little joke?

Well if NOM made Flash movies, that Nintendo is for Pansies one is the kinda crap they'd make (but against Sony and Microsoft)
I must point out Edgemeister, I don't read NOM.

Really?
So despite us 'Ninty's' not reading NOM because of it's crap humour, and many Sony and Microsoft fans complaining because of NOM's childish behaviour, we'd all laugh at that kind of crap anyway?
Do you laugh at NOMs jokey names towards the PS2 and X-box? Do you laugh at NOMs humour and the fact that they'll do anything to pick up on X-box faults?
No?
Why not?
Because it's pathetic, that's why.
